  2. Exhaust heat management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_Heat_Management

    The key difference between a heat shield and insulating the pipe, through either wrapping or thermal coating, is the air gap that exists between the exhaust and the shield. More recently technology has become available to apply ceramic thermal barrier coatings onto flexible aluminium in order to increase the thermal insulatory properties.

  3. Heat shield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_shield

    An example of a steel heat shield on a BMW E series engine Rigid heat shields have until recently commonly been made from solid steel, [6] but are now often made from aluminum. Some high-end rigid heat shields are made out of either aluminum, gold or composite, with most examples including a ceramic coating to provide a thermal barrier , which ...

  4. Heat-shrinkable sleeve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrinkable_sleeve

    The first heat-shrinkable sleeves were introduced [when?] as polyethylene pipeline coatings started to replace bituminous or tape coatings in the oil and gas industry. At the time, the processing for polyethylene to make the sleeve backing was new technology and the adhesives used in sleeves were much the same as those used on pipeline coating.

  5. Exhaust heat recovery system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_heat_recovery_system

    An exhaust heat recovery system turns waste heat energy in exhaust gases into electric energy for batteries or mechanical energy reintroduced on the crankshaft. The technology is of increasing interest as car and heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers continue to increase efficiency, saving fuel and reducing emissions.

  6. Windshield sun shade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windshield_sun_shade

    Typically, sun shields are made of a layer of mylar or aluminum foil which covers the inside of the car's windows, to reflect the sun's rays away, and preventing the interior from being exposed to those rays. There are sunshades specifically designed to fit the inside of the front windshield of the car, and others designed for the car's side ...

  7. Ablative armor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablative_armor

    The Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual explains that ablative armor works in two stages: When the shields are hit by an energy or particle weapon, thermal energy from the ship is dissipated across the hull. The boil-off rate creates a particle cloud that is dense enough to disperse the incoming beam's energy.

  8. Heater core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heater_core

    Heater core (arrowed) in the partially disassembled dashboard of a BMW E32.. The internal combustion engine in most cars and trucks is cooled by a water and antifreeze mixture that is circulated through the engine and radiator by a water pump to enable the radiator to give off engine heat to the atmosphere.

  9. Wax thermostatic element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wax_thermostatic_element

    Its principal application is in automotive thermostats used in the engine cooling system. The first applications in the plumbing and heating industries were in Sweden (1970) and in Switzerland (1971). Wax thermostatic elements transform heat energy into mechanical energy using the thermal expansion of waxes when they melt.
